The new castle shuttles -->
Don't have a car and want to come to the Château de Chamerolles? Don't panic, we have the solution.
Thanks to the Centre-Val de Loire region, from May 1st to September 14th, 2025, shuttles will travel from the Orléans bus station (city center) to Chamerolles, also passing through the bucolic Arboretum des Grandes Bruyères. It's an opportunity to spend a day off the beaten track visiting the château and arboretum.
